LIKE anything in life, so much of football is played out in the head. We expect miracles from players every time they take to the pitch but there are a million and one reasons why that can’t always be the case. Top of the list: footballers are human. Just like...
Neil Atkinson and John Gibbons drive the coach as they talk to Robbie Scotcher about Crystal Palace, Ben Finney about Hull and Rebecca Knight about Chelsea. The Coach Home is our magazine show looking at teams outside of L4 and talking to their best commentators. It’s...
